In the end, the answer sheet with the most circles of ten people was delivered to Zhu Youlang's desk.

Zhu Youlang looked at the imperial examination one by one.

I have to say that the articles of these ten tribute students are very good, with good writing and clear papers. They also answered the questions given by Zhu Youlang from different aspects.

Zhu Youlang looked at the lessons learned from the previous dynasty, some talked about party struggles, some talked about new land policies, some talked about women's liberation, some talked about "people-oriented". In short, they are basically consistent with their own governance strategy.

Of course, Qu Zhengbo's "Theory of Strong Country" is most suitable for him.

After reading the ten answer sheets, Zhu Youlang asked Wu Bing: "Why didn't you meet Zhang Yongqi, the second place in the exam?"

"When you go back to Your Majesty, Zhang Yongqi was crazy and perverse at a young age, his words were fierce, and his meaning was not clear about his meaning. He was afraid that he would be tragic and listened to him, so he was not included in the top ten." Wu Bing replied.

"Oh?" Zhu Youlang became a little interested when he heard what Wu Bing said so seriously.

"Take his papers and I'll take a look."

"Abide by the order."

Wu Bing quickly ordered someone to take Zhang Yongqi's test paper.

After reading it, Zhu Youlang smiled: "But first, I see that Zhang Yongqi's answer is very good. The article is hidden in the cotton, and every word is Zhuji, just like Wei Zheng's "Ten Thoughts on Advising Emperor Taizong". If we only use articles, I think it is still above Qu Zhengbo."

"When you go back to your Majesty, although your articles are good, your intentions are not bad. I can only say that it is a thousand miles of mistakes." Wu Bing replied.

Zhu Youlang thought about it and knew that Lu Daqi had just happened a few days ago. Everyone was sensitive to "treating and governing" and "treating without doing anything", so no one dared to draw circles for Zhang Yongqi, for fear of making him dissatisfied.

However, Zhang Yongqi's original intention was not to weaken the imperial power, but to worry that if such powerful power was put into the hands of a foolish emperor, it would harm the country even more.

It is not for Zhang Yongqi to have such concerns. Since Emperor Yingzong, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty have indeed few wise kings.

Which one is a wise ruler, a elixir of Jiajing, a elixir of Wanli, and a little carpenter, Zhu Youxiao, who is considered a wise ruler?

Therefore, Zhang Yongqi's point of view is very correct. He can remind himself to choose a successor and cultivate himself well, so as not to make his descendants appear foolish.

But this guy is a bit literary.

"But first, Zhang Yongqi's views are not good. Although his words are fierce, I believe he is kind-hearted. Emperor Taizong of Tang can accommodate a Wei Zheng, and I have a broad mind. Can't he still have Zhang Yongqi?"

"Yes, yes, your Majesty is very talented and will not argue with a scholar."

"I see this person's thoughts are very thoughtful, but he is a bit pedantic. This is because he lacks the training of worldly affairs. Unlike Qu Zhengbo, who is young, he has not read a dead end."

After saying that, Zhu Youlang handed the eleven answer sheets to Wu Bing.

Wu Bing took it and saw that the top was Qu Zhengbo, Zhang Yongqi below, and Chen Quan below, which means that these three people are the top three in Enke this time.

Wu Bing said in his heart: "Zhang Yongqi's life is really good. Thanks to meeting a generous person like the emperor, if he meets a narrow-minded master, it would be good that he will not be dismissed."

"Your Majesty, Qu Zhengbo, Zhang Yongqi, and Chen Quanzhong will follow the old rules to enter the Hanlin Academy?" Wu Bing asked.

"No, all these Jinshis are awarded the title of prefecture and county officials, and no one in Nanjing is left. If there are no vacancies, they will be awarded the title of the Assistant Office of the Prefecture and Prefecture." Zhu Youlang replied.

"Ah?" Wu Bing was shocked and couldn't speak: "What does the emperor mean? Have you decided on the future of these people? Will no one enter the cabinet in the future?"

"But first, you don't have to be surprised. I am not trying to make their future a death, but I have to change the rule that 'no Hanlin' is not allowed to enter the cabinet'. I have to govern the country with people and use officials who are close to the people. Cabinet ministers are in the position of prime minister, and talent is not enough. If they do not know the hardships of people's livelihood, the sufferings of farming, and the inability to deal with things, they will inevitably be risked to follow the rules. Therefore, I sent all these Jinshis to the bottom to experience. After the experience is completed, the six ministries and nine ministers will be allowed to do it, and the cabinet's grandson will also be allowed to do it." Zhu Youlang's words solved Wu Bing's doubts.

"The way to promotion starts with the training of local prefectures and counties. This is the first time for all dynasties to employ people." Wu Bing said in his heart.

...

The yellow list was posted, and Zhang Yongqi was named the second place. He was very excited. He wore Qu Zhengbo and Chen Quan and paraded on the streets with red flowers, and was very glorious in Nanjing.

Listening to the sound of firecrackers in front of him, the sound of praise was endless, and looking at the envious eyes of countless people on both sides of the street, Zhang Yongqi felt full of experience: "Today's glory is the ultimate joy of life!"

After attending the Qionglin Banquet specially held for the new Jinshi, Chen Quan arranged a group of people to attend the teacher's house that night.

This is also the meaning in the question, and Qu Zhengbo, Zhang Yongqi and others will not refuse.

So the three of them walked together and followed each other to the Wu Mansion.

"Brother Qu Xian, after the Qionglin banquet, the decree of the three of us as Hanlin should be issued. Next, we should go to the Ministry of Personnel to receive the document of the prosecutor. But I wonder if there was a business in which stage, why did there be no decree? Have you heard anything from Uncle Shi?" Chen Quan asked.

Chen Quan, whose courtesy name is Zhenrui, was from Songjiang. He was born in the fourth year of Tianqi and the longest of the three.

"My father never talks about government affairs at home. The court has its own laws and regulations for such matters, so I dare not inquire about it."

Although Qu Zhengbo is the youngest, he is in the middle of the line because he is the top scorer.

He waved a folding fan in his hand and replied with a smile.

"Brother Zhang, haven't you heard any news?" Chen Quan turned to ask Zhang Yongqi.

"No. Brother Chen, seeing you are so urgent, I will just ask in person when I meet the teacher." Zhang Yongqi replied calmly and quietly.

He was very upset about Chen Quan's unbearable nature: "What should be come will come naturally, why should we be anxious? How can we be a big deal if we are unstable? Qu Zhengbo is not young, he is very sensible. Will he tell you if you ask him?"

"Haha, Brother Yu is not anxious. What's the point of being anxious? As usual, Brother Qu is appointed as the editor of the Hanlin Academy, and you and I are appointed as the editor of the Hanlin Academy. This is all fixed." Chen Quan was stabbed by Zhang Yongqi, stunned for a moment, and said with a smile.

"Yes, the three of us will join the Hanlin together, and will be the prime minister in the future, assist the Holy Lord, and show our ambitions. It will be just around the corner." Zhang Yongqi heard Chen Quan mention Hanlin and suddenly touched his itch and said in an ambitious tone.

"Two brothers, the emperor's actions have always been like a dragon but not a tail. It's not reasonable to judge them." Qu Zhengbo smiled and gently tapped the two of them in the same year, who were as warm as hot charcoal.

"Brother Qu Xian, no matter how unreasonable you and I are, you should not change when you and I teach Hanlin. You probably think too much." Zhang Yongqi said.
